Pura Lopez fringe platform sandals

Fringing has never been my favourite shoe embellishment, probably because I always think shoes with fringes at the front, like these Pura Lopez sandals, look like they’ve grown a small mustache. Which is, quite frankly, bizarre on a shoe.

These ones, though, I’m finding myself drawn to. It could just be the colours: as well as the two shown above, which are called ‘Helio’ and ‘Smog’ respectively, there are also aubergine and brown options, and they all look rather nice. The shape of these sandals is rather more clunky than I’d normally go for, but I think it actually works quite well on them. They’re $153 from Amazon.
